SCOTUS Servo tracks and announces changes to Supreme Court opinions

GitHub is where most software developers maintain their projects. It provides version control, issue tracking and much more to its users. I even have a few repositories of my own.

SCOTUS Servo is developed by V. David Zvenyach, a self-described “lawyer and web tinkerer.” His list of projects is impressive, but SCOTUS Servo is so simple it’s beautiful.

Zvenyach’s software watches Supreme Court PDFs for changes to the file and then posts notifications via Twitter user @SCOTUS_servo.

It’s legal geekery at it’s best and most civic-minded.
